Well, I was in France and several of us were trying to figure out the menu (even one who was Canadian French). We asked about one and the Maitre D put his fingers to his head like horns and said MOOOO! We said "Oh! Beef, we'll take that! Turned out to be beef brains! AARGH!

Stir fried with black walnuts and an orange and clover honey sauce served over sticky rice is pretty good. Roasted over an open fire with just salt and pepper is simple but delicious as well.

Why is there such a lack of humor on SH lately? Is it the heat?

Yes, the bald eagle is protected and illegal to hunt, consume, or generally have in your possession any part of one. Same with the spotted owl. There was that whole brouhaha a while back about loggers and the potential threat to the owls, they got listed as protected, blah blah blah...
